Our guest this week is Charles Eisenstein, a teacher, public speaker, gift economy advocate, and writer who focuses on themes of civilization, consciousness, money, and human cultural evolution.About CharlesHe is the author of several books including The Ascent of Humanity (2007), Sacred Economics (2011), The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible (2013) and Climate - A New Story (2018). Sacred Economics traces the history of money from ancient gift economies to modern capitalism, revealing how the money system has contributed to alienation, competition, and scarcity, destroyed community, and necessitated endless growth. Today, these trends have reached their extreme, but in the wake of their collapse, we may find great opportunities to transition to a more connected, ecological, and sustainable way of being.His on-line writings have generated a vast following; he speaks frequently at conferences and other events, and gives numerous interviews on radio and podcasts. He also occasionally writes for the "Comment is Free" section of The Guardian and The Huffington Post on topics including genetic modification and the patenting of seeds and debt. He is a contributing editor at the website Reality Sandwich. In advance of appearing on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday on July 16, 2017, Eisenstein wrote "The Age of We Need Each Other."

An example is the fact that how the world works kind of revolves around money. We often operate based on what we have to do and what we can afford to do. A person’s survival is highly dependent on money. He wanted to understand money better so he could understand society, the human being, and himself. He feels the divide between money and spirituality is part of the problem and that the two need to be unified with money being the crux of the unification. His experience has been that money always seems to pull him back into a person that he no longer wants to be and it brings out his worst impulses, and he wants to look at that and be who he can be, so he looks into what role money can play in a person’s evolution.“If there’s anything harder to bring into the sacred realm, it would be money” - Charles EisensteinThe Gift EconomyIt comes from a basic impulse that one is offering something as a gift to someone, and if it’s precious to that someone, then any amount of money that that someone charges is going to be too little, because the gift is infinitely valuable, and so putting a price on it would devalue it. Any amount the person receiving the gift charges would also be too much because that would put it behind a paywall. When the price of something is too little and too much, one can’t set the price. He applies the same with his online courses where he lets the users determine the price of the courses. That takes the pressure off him to provide value and it allows generosity to come in, and for him to be funded without having to compel people to give the funding to him.“We have to explore and share with each other how we’re doing it and be generous with our judgments of those who are trying these experiments” - Charles EisensteinHow Money is Created in Our SystemThis refers to how money is created through the lending of financial institutions to individuals and corporations. Banks lend to people who will pay back and they focus on lending to people who will make more money when they get a loan so they can pay it back with interest. For example, if someone wants to protect an ecosystem, the bank will determine that there will be no money to be made there, but if a person intends to pave over an ecosystem and build a strip mall, the bank will determine that they can pay back the loan they get. That demonstrates that the system is geared towards endless growth of the monetized realm simply because of the way money is created, which puts people into competition because at any given moment, there’s always more debt than there is money. Money is created through lending and there is always interest in it. When a million dollars is created, one point five million dollars of debt is created. And so people are always in competition with each other because there’s never enough.“The system is geared towards endless growth of the monetized realm simply because of the way money is created” - Charles EisensteinThe Scarcity and Competition That Enslaves PeoplePeople never get the opportunity to tune into alignment because they live in so much competition and a scarcity created by the fact that everything they have is dependent on their ability to pay their debts. This is one of the biggest limits on people’s capacity to follow their dreams because they feel enslaved to their mortgages, rent payments, student loans, and other forms of financial debt. Competition is not bad because it allows people to test their limits and it can be a journey of self-revelation. Charles is not anti-competition but his concern is that it pervades realms of human interaction that should not be competitive.“In the inter-connected sense of self, the purpose of life is different. It’s no longer to win security but it is to give of our gifts” - Charles EisensteinHow To Interact With Money and LifeThere’s no general formula for how to do that, and skillful means necessary to take the next step. It’s not an all or nothing thing, it’s about what’s the natural next step towards the future that’s calling us. It’s almost like we can sense that future on the horizon and that there’s a path that goes to it, and there are many other paths converging in the present, each of them leading to a different future. We might have an experience where we witnessed true generosity and cooperation, or the magnificence of our own gifts and have that feeling of “This is what I’m here to do”, and our world could be built on that but then it just passes and we’re back to normal, but it doesn’t feel like a trick of the universe to temporarily comfort someone from the grim reality that we’re in. It feels more like an outreach from the future to the present. We don’t need to know or map the entire path. All we need to do is recognize the next step which comes from new information that comes from different experiences which awaken something that recognizes that it’s true, and recognizing it is a reprogramming which then enables one to see an opportunity that they would otherwise not have seen.“We have these moments of our lives that show us what’s possible” - Charles EisensteinThe Current Shift in ConversationWhat opens conversation up to extend beyond the bounds of normal is where normal isn’t working very well especially if there’s some kind of crisis. Even before COVID-19 hit, we were a society in growing crisis with a financial and health crisis on the horizon. With the Coronavirus dealing such a massive blow to normalcy, all kinds of ideas are entering the public discourse. If someone for example suggested the grounding of all commercial aircraft because of climate change, people would say that that’s preposterous, but it happened because of the Coronavirus. That demonstrates what humanity can do when we’re united in a common course. When we have unity and coherence, we can do anything. None of the world’s problems are technically difficult to solve because the difficulty is purely political. “As normal stops working, then ideas that had been off the table are brought back onto the table” - Charles EisensteinWhy There’s More PolarizationDeep at the root of the crisis of civilization is a crisis of belonging where because of the dissolving of community, people don’t know who they are because our identity is built from our relationships (because we’re not separate selves). A few generations ago, it used to be that in most places on earth, one would know every single person that they saw. One would know every land form and the stories behind it. People were connected and at home. The modern economy, modern technology, and the labeling and categorizing of everything by science have all pushed us apart in various ways, and replaced our dependencies on each other with dependencies on vast and personal processes, and destroyed the stories that told us who we are and why we are here. Without those relationships and stories, we have a hunger to belong, feel at home, and for identity. One way to source that is through identification with an in-group or an idea, in such a way that one can know themselves as good and right, because they have the right ideas and opinions. Therefore, if someone attacks us for our ideas, it feels like a personal attack. “As community breaks down people become more and more susceptible to substitutes that make one feel connected like cults, fascism, or consumerism” - Charles Eisenstein See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Brené Brown, 4x New York Times bestselling author, researcher, Oprah's Super Soul Sunday favorite and top-5 TED Talk presenter of all time, joins us today! We'll talk about her new book Dare to Lead. Share tips to become better leaders. Identify what might be holding us back. And hear the vulnerability expert herself share vulnerably about her "big, rowdy Texas" family + life. Join us to live (and lead!) inspired with one of my very favorite authors. Show Notes: Watch Brené Brown's TED talk on vulnerability here. Brené studies courage, vulnerability, shame, empathy + what transformational leaders will need in the future. "I was raised with a very Texas sensibility. I had to be brave and wasn't allowed to be vulnerable. Now, years and 400,000 pieces of data later, I know there is not courage without vulnerability." "You can't write a new ending to a story that you have not owned." You know what is harder than not fitting in at school? Not fitting in at home. True belonging never requires you to change who you are. It requires you to be who you are. We can never experience a sense of belonging that is greater than our sense of self-worth and courage to stand alone because sometimes we have to stand alone. Even at fortune 10 companies, without exception, Brené hears that one of the hardest things about work is feeling like you don't belong. In the absence of belonging, we show up in ways that are outside of our normal values. My kids don't need me to apologize for working. They need to see me be strong and contribute and do something I love and then they need me to be present when I am home. 90% of "balancing it all" is having the right partner, one that shines when you shine. Brené's marriage hack: Instead of thinking, "it should be 50/50" a solid partnership is one where, when you have 20%, they can cough up 80%. Share how much you have + ask how much your partner has. If you can't get to 100% together, you have to have kindness, patience, grace with each other to make it through. If I feel nauseous when I'm done, I probably did a good job. Vulnerability is courage. To opt out of difficult conversations around gender, race, or class, because you can't do it perfectly or be comfortable is the definition of privilege. I'd rather contribute and be criticized then play it safe. Show Notes on Brené Brown's new Book: Dare to Lead Get a copy of Brene's new book Dare to Lead and additional resources for it here. We asked all the leaders we interviewed: What is the future of leadership? What scares you the most about not being able to find new leaders? What is missing? From family-owned, to starts-ups to fortune-10 companies we heard: "We need more courage in our leaders." We asked "What do you see as a barrier to courage?" In the book we share 10 barriers to leadership. Examples: (1) unwillingness or inability to have tough conversations (2) blaming instead of accountability. The biggest barrier to courageous leadership is self-protection, the way we armor up. You can't lead from an armored place. If you can't do hard, real and vulnerable you cannot lead in the future. What doesn't need to be vulnerable and human will be done by machines. When we are unsure how we are contributing/don't see meaningfulness in our contribution, we start hustling for our work. We over emphasize our importance... and hustle to make sure people think we are worthy. Tip: Make sure you have conversations and acknowledge where your employees are adding value. Ask where they see themselves adding value. There is nothing worse than the behaviors that show up when people don't know. They stop being learners + start being knowers... put more emphasis on being right than doing something right... on being important v. doing important work. If you see some of these tendencies in yourself, it's a sign you're not clear on your value. The biggest sign of confidence is curiosity; when we know our value, we don't have to know everything. When we aren't confident, we: Prove, please, perfect, poll. How do you pivot from negativity to hope and courage? I give myself permission to complain with perspective. Once I do this, I move into practicing gratitude, because the people who have the most capacity for joy are the most grateful. BRENE BROWN'S LIVE INSPIRED 7 1. What is the best book you’ve ever read? The Alchemist because I always go back to it. My main takeaway: when you are on the right path, the universe conspires to help you. 2. What is a characteristic or trait that you possessed as a child that you wish you still exhibited today? Carefree. 3. Your house is on fire, all living things and people are out. You have the opportunity to run in and grab one item. What would it be? Photos and the crosses I had made out of the my kids' baby cribs. 4. You are sitting on a bench overlooking a gorgeous beach. You have the opportunity to have a long conversation with anyone living or dead. Who would it be? Maya Angelou. 5. What is the best advice you've ever received? When we know better we do better. 6. What advice would you give your 20-year-old self? You don't have to act so tough, it's okay to be afraid. 7. It’s been said that all great people can have their lives summed up in one sentence. How do you want yours to read? She contributed more than she criticized. *** If you enjoyed today’s episode: Subscribe, rate & review wherever you get your podcasts. See you here next Thursday!
